 Ah, back to my old enemy - the miscommunication trope causing so many unnecessary issues.

The book was ok-ish, it's a realativly short graphic novel about two gay teens hiding who they are for fear of public humiliation.

I didnt really like the hot to cold relationship the guys had - if they just talked it out from the beginning the relationship would have been alot healthier. Overall alot of the characters just seemed like they kept secrets for the sake of keeping secrets. I also think the character develpoment of certain characters becoming less homophobic was very lacklustre and brief - literally just a few pannels and then everything was suddenly OK.

I did enjoy the rural ranch setting and the artwork was in a nice style.
